Beauty and the Bodyguard

"Oh ..." Lin Yi finally nodded, breathing in relief.

It seemed like Wang Xinyan was the luckiest woman he had ever met in the mortal world. Of course, this was all because of her unique talent. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to catch the eyes of Donghai's divine nun, and wouldn't have been protected by so many important figures.

"But it's a pity ..." Ge wei suddenly shook his head with a look of pity.

"What's a pity?" Lin Yi couldn't help but ask.

"Although everyone knows that Wang Xinyan, one of the three fairies, is extremely talented, the Morning Star Academy is very tight-lipped about her exact talent. Other than the deans and Vice Deans, even the higher-ups of the other Academies don't know. This has become an unsolved mystery in the gaolin Sea area of the East continent. If anyone can find out the inside story, they can sell a lot of spiritual jades. Tsk, tsk!" Ge wei shook his head and sighed.

Inquiring about information was his old profession. This feeling of knowing that there were secrets but not being able to find out anything was simply a hundred claws scratching at his heart, making him itch.

With the various means of inquiring information that he had used, if he was in the East continent's gaolin Sea area, he would eventually be able to obtain information no matter how secretive it was. Unfortunately, he was in the South continent now and could not easily go to the East continent. They were thousands of miles apart, so what could he do?

Lin Yi smiled to himself-an outsider like GE wei wouldn't know what kind of talent Xinyan had, but Lin Yi knew it all too well. Xinyan's spirit root had a very special element-it wasn't one of the traditional five elements, but what the common world called a special body-a sponge body!

Strictly speaking, the sponge body was a type of spiritual root attribute, and it was an extremely rare mutated spiritual root attribute. It was mentioned in ge wei's Secret manual for passing the assessment that anyone with any mutated spiritual root attribute was a rare genius in the world. Those with mutated spiritual roots could enter the academy without having to go through the selection process and receive the treatment of a true genius disciple.

A sponge Constitution was a rare existence even among all mutated spiritual roots, and it wasn't an exaggeration to say that it was one of the most mutated spiritual roots. It was unexpected that Wang Xinyan was so highly valued and even had such a high position in the morning Star Academy, but it was actually reasonable.

Lin Yi nodded silently. It seemed that as long as one's talent reached a certain level, even the rules of the Morning Star Academy could be ignored. A talented person like Wang Xinyan would be treated like a treasure in any other school in the East continent.

Just as Lin Yi and ge wei were talking, another extraordinary individual appeared in front of the spiritual roots testing stone tablet.

"Metal, fire, and earth spiritual roots are solid spiritual roots, and wood spiritual roots are pseudo spiritual roots. A total of four spiritual roots!" This time, even the Academy's staff couldn't hide the shock in their tone. Even if the wood element was a pseudo-spiritual root attribute, it was still a genuine four-elemental spiritual root attribute!

Even Chu muqing had been overshadowed by such talent. Even in the morning Star Academy, where geniuses were abundant, such talent was considered top-notch.

"Hahaha, my old man is right. I'm indeed the chosen one. This time, there's hope for our Qiu family to rise again!" This man had short Hedgehog-like hair, and the muscles that were exposed on his body were quite strong. Although his clothes were expensive, he had a strong nouveau riche aura all over his body. It was unknown which country he came from, but when he suddenly heard that he was a genius with four spiritual roots, he immediately became arrogant.

Seeing this scene, the crowd could not feel any disdain. Even if they knew that the other party was a country bumpkin, he was still a country bumpkin with four spiritual roots. This kind of talent was something that they dreamed of, but unfortunately, they did not have the fate to do so. At this time, they could not even be envious, so what did they have to look down on him?

If someone really showed disdain, it would only be said that jealousy was causing trouble. On the contrary, it would be ridiculed by others. Even if he was a country bumpkin now, with this kind of talent, he was bound to soar. In the future, his level would be far beyond anyone's reach, so there was no need to look for trouble.

The sudden appearance of a genius with four elements spiritual roots caused even the big shots on the high platform to focus their eyes on the man with the Hedgehog head. The third round of the test had not even begun, but there were already a few eyes that were quite eager, as if they wanted to take him under their wing.

The man with the Hedgehog head was full of pride. He did not have any stage fright despite being the focus of attention of so many important figures. He walked to the third round's assessment array and, without waiting for the examiner to say anything, he gathered his true energy and punched.

The examiner's expression changed, but he didn't reprimand him. Instead, he turned to look at the stage. After all, he had four spiritual roots. Although the Hedgehog-headed man wasn't as strong as Chu muqing, who was able to fight opponents above his level, he was still stronger than ordinary experts of the same level.

With Chu muqing's admission as a precedent, the crowd could more or less see what was going on. They knew that this meant that the man with the Hedgehog head would definitely be able to enter the Morning Star Academy. However, it would still depend on whether the bosses of the Academy would like him.

Out of the three sect opening powerhouses, Dean Ling Yuanqing didn't have any intention of expressing his position. Donghai's nun was talking to Wang Xinyan and didn't even look at the Hedgehog head. Only Wei Hebei was left.

Wei He bei sized up Hedgehog head for a while. The attributes of the four-element spirit root indeed made him a little tempted. If he was trained well, he dared not say that he would become a super expert at the level of a pillar, but his strength would not be too bad. Just from this point, it was worth it to take him in. Anyway, it would not make a difference if he was one more.

However, the temperament and cultivation that the man with the Hedgehog head displayed did not seem like he would become a great person. If he had the temperament of an expert like Chu muqing, Wei He bei would have immediately made the decision. However, looking at the arrogant behavior of the man with the Hedgehog head, if he rashly accepted it and ended up as a useless person, he might even become a joke at the morning stars Academy. Wouldn't that ruin Wei He bei's reputation?

Wei He bei couldn't help but hesitate. He hadn't accepted any disciples for three years in a row. Now that four elements were in front of him, it would be a pity if he just gave up. However, if he accepted, he was afraid that this guy wouldn't be able to stand up. It would be a pity to throw him away, and this Hedgehog head was basically of little value! (To be continued.)
